Family Day Care
Family Day Care provides fully licensed, quality
care for children up to 12 years of age in the homes of qualified
child care workers.
Care is provided for small groups of children in an environment
that encourages participation, activities, learning and positive
development.
Family Day Care is a flexible service that can easily match the
needs of all types of families. Types of care include:
- Full-time care
- Part-time care
- Casual care
- Before/after school care
- Vacation care
- Care for children of shiftworkers
- Emergency care
All Family Day Care workers are well resourced, trained and up-to-date
with current child care practices. A co-ordination team recruits,
monitors and trains carers and assists families to chose a carer
that matches their individual needs.
Family Day Care is a rewarding child care option for children of
all ages, their families and Home Based Child Care Workers.
The Federal Government's Child Care benefit is available for eligible
families.
